can this be used for a large ice machine? Ice machines and scale do not mix well...if this worked it would save me a ton of time cleaning scale

It didn't work well on my tankless water heater. So I don't know if it would work any better for your ice machine. Sorry wish I had better news.

Electronic water softeners magnetically charge the mineral ions that form scale to be less (or non) "sticky", so the minerals are still there, they just don't stick to pipes, etc. -- and are even removing my existing mineral deposits. Funny side-effect: All the potassium coming out of my pipes is giving bath water a rather nice blue tint. Doesn't give that slippery feeling you get with salt-based softeners. This is a good entry-level unit. There are more-expensive units for high-volume commercial applications out there. Try one, and keep an eye on the results.

It won't save you any time cleaning scale from an ice machine or anything else, because it does nothing at all.

I tried that , it does stick together. And it's jnot the same after that. I personally think your not going to need to do that. The machine crushes the ice fast and easy. I also discovered that this machine makes alot of "snow " for a little bit of ice I put in. Hope this is helpful to you in some way. Feel free to ask any questions.

I tried ice and shook it around. It got some coffee stain out, but it would have taken a long time to get it all. I just lived with it.

I think it would. I used my ice maker, but thinking back I believe 4 trays would be enough. Good luck!

I am not using mine commercially. I fell in love with shaved ice while vacationing in Hawaii. It shaves perfectly for me. We adjust our blade so it come out like fresh powdered snow. Any faster an we would not be able to keep up with our neighbor kids orders. It is supposed to do like 300 lb an hour and I believe it could. We use 1 gallon ice cream pails which fit the plate doze perfectly, the ice cannot be cracked at all and it needs to be level or it will throw the machine off balance. Hope this helps.

Yes, but best to use professional cleaner unless your machine is extra large capacity and has a delicate cycle.

I have used it w a Kenmore Elite side by side. It is very likely going to work, new fridge icemaker connections tend to be stadardized. The user's manual may have a section on the ice maker hookup and tell you what type of connection your fridge has.

Machine is a piece of junk. We went thru three of these and finally said that is enough. Suggest you do a descaling with a good quality descaler. Looks like your mechanism is beginning to clog.

As long as you are able to modify the existing panel, and your current ice maker is the same basic dimensions, that should be very possible.

I don't see why it wouldn't work. I haven't tried it as I have a food Processor and mini processor so haven't needed to use it in that way.. It crushes ice very well so should..

It's not the machine. The machine does one thing and it does it well. What you do with the ice after is on you. If you're returning the item, I doubt you're looking for advice. The only reason why the ice is clumping is due to the outside air temperature, humidity and the temperature of the syrup. Try adjusting one of those three pieces.

I don't think so, it has a specific indent on the bottom that holds it in the machine that spins it. I suppose you could use a mixer to turn the ice cream, but it would take a very long time and wouldn't mix slowly enough. Worth it to get the whole thing, it's only like $75 and includes the freezer bowl. Put the stuff in, set it and forget it!

Your model is not listed as being compatable. See the list where it say's will fit these models. You can search at sears online by your model number and get the ice maker part number then go to Amazon. Good luck

This unit would work fine for a parts cleaner. You will have to do some research on the appropriate media to use on the parts you want to clean.

The standard motor that comes with the unit has burned out on my last two units. I bought a whole new unit to replace the first and the motor burned up on it in two seasons. I only make ice cream on occaision and in no way over taxed the motor on either of the first two. I purchased this replacement motor on amazon and it says it has an industrial strength motor. I haven't use my new one yet, so I'm interested to see if it will ouitlast the others. I would suggest replacing the motor and making ice cream without delay. I'm figuring it's part of the cost of operation.

It should, I have used to spread other ice melt products. You may have to declump sea salt if it is not uniformly pebble like.

You could but I wouldn't expect the machine to last very long doing that kind of work. If you want snow like ice I would find a machine specific to that task and you will need to pay more money for a high-end machine.
